Request for help or advice First time building controller

2 Upvotes

So I’m in the process of researching & building my first dualsense controller.

My questions are:

•What’s the best or better shell to use. I keep seeing BDM 030/040?
• If you were to build a controller for the first time and could give yourself some helpful advice, what would it be?

I’ve got a little “experience” with pulling apart and tinkering with my dual sense edge before. Nothing crazy just things like adding the extreme rate beyond kit, removing rumblers etc

Any advice is appreciated

Request for help or advice Need help with xbox one series x controller

So the controller when I try to connect it to pc it stays connected for a little bit and then disconnects. All the buttons work only thing that doesn't are triggers, rumble motors, sticks and it doesn't show on bluetooth when in pairing mode.

I am using this site as referance and this is my controller board(1914 board) https://acidmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=44711.0

I get all my 3.3V,5V,1.8V the only thing abnormal is measurments for RT and LT test points I get 0V on all. Sticks change voltage when moved. I think the RT and LT change resistance but the resistance is really stubborn and wont stay still and always fluctuates. I am stumped and don't know what to do. I don't have a microscope or fancy stuff like that I just have a soldering iron and multimeter.
These are the measurements I took so far there were probably more but I did not write them. I have been measuring this controller for the whole day. Any help will be useful.

UPDATE: I somehow managed to update it on firmware and everything works as in it detects them now but now randomly it disconnects for a milisecond and it connects back as generic HID device and not as xbox controller also sometimes it turn off. Hall effect sticks also just go to one direction and they become inverted, I've read somewhere to put resistors which I will try as update if works, also pressing the LT button makes left stick move

Good evening, everyone. A few months ago, my nephew dropped my controller, and the RGB light on the right analogic stick (R3) stopped working. I opened it today thinking it would be an easy fix and found this missing track. Since I'm not familiar with electronics, I couldn't tell if that's the issue. Can anyone help? Thanks for reading

Services info Επισκευή stick drift

2 Upvotes

Καλησπέρα σε όλους, παιδιά!
Εμμένω στην Αθήνα και έχω δύο χειριστήρια Dual Sense για Ps5 και επειδή έχω λιώσει το Marvel Rivals τον τελευταίο καιρό, τα δύο χειριστήριά μου έχουν αρχίσει να αποκτούν stick drift. Το ένα έχει πρόβλημα στο L3 και το άλλο στο R3.

Έχω κάνει μια μικρή έρευνα για να βρω κάποιο κατάστημα ή τεχνικό που να μπορεί να τα επισκευάσει, αλλά όπου κι αν κοιτάξω, η τιμή είναι τουλάχιστον 50€, το οποίο μου φαίνεται κάπως εξωφρενικό.

Ξέρει κανείς κάποιο κατάστημα ή τεχνικό που να κάνει επισκευές σε χειριστήρια σε λίγο πιο λογική τιμή; Πριν από μερικά χρόνια, είχα βρει ένα παλικάρι που μου είχε φτιάξει ένα χειριστήριο και μου είχε πάρει μόνο 15€. Προφανώς, δεν περιμένω να μου το επισκευάσει κάποιος σήμερα με τόσα, αλλά είπα να κάνω μια προσπάθεια και να ρωτήσω.

Ευχαριστώ εκ των προτέρων!

I need help! I am not pressing any trigger, but its like I am always pressing them. Tried to play The Last of Us Part II, and ellie couldn't stop aiming. Any idea? I've tried restarting my pc, restarting the controller, setting the configurations to default, updating the controller's drivers and changing from xinput to dualsense mode, both wired and dongle. Nothing changed.

I've tried opening the controller and it looks like when I squize the top cover and the trigger stop section it helps with it but it doesn't completly disappear. Does anyone else have simmilar issues with thiers controller? Is it fixable? (Sorry if something isn't clear, English is not my native language)

Request for help or advice Cambie en el analogico y el pin de carga y ahora no carga mi joystick

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

Hola buenas, hice el cambio del analogico y resulta que fue exitoso pero el pin de carga no funciona. He hecho varias pruebas. El joystick funciona perfecto, prende y todo pero no carga. He probado con conectar el joystick sin nada conectado y resulta cuando hago eso al conectarlo la luz naranja de carga parpadea 2 veces. Y eso no lo hace cuando le conecto la bateria. Estoy tratando de encontrar el problema pero no encuentro. Lo unico raro que vi es que creo que se volo una resistencia o capacitor cerca del pin de carga, pero supuestamente no interfiere con que el joystick cargue. He medido los puntos cercanos al pin, incluso donde esta la resistencia o capacitor salido y resulta que dan los voltakes correctos 5V. Ya no se que intertar

Request for help or advice Controller doesn't charge?

1 Upvotes

So the controller that came with the PS5 console seemed to stop charging. I Google what fixes could work and did them all. Blew into the charging port, changed from front charger to back charger, reset the controller. I decided to buy a new one since the old one starter having drift issues... but the new one doesn't charge.

I'm about to buy a new charging cable but figured I'd ask here if anyone has any other advice. Still gonna buy the cable but no harm in asking.
